Nokia have now launched one of of their latest double acts, the 6600 Fold is the flip version of the Nokia 6600 which is also to feature a sliding model, this is likely to cause some confusion as both models are to be called the 6600 with only the 'Fold' or 'Slide' to determine which is which.
The Nokia 6600 Fold has been exclsuively launched by the 3G dedicated network 3 Mobile in the UK, this means that consumers can only buy this new flip phone with a 3 Mobile contract deal for a limited time period. These time frames can last for just a couple of days through to months based on the agreement signed between the manufacturer and the network.
Available as a clamshell or slider, the Nokia 6600 is accompanied by the Nokia 3600 Slide in Nokia's latest fashion lineup.
The Nokia 6600 Fold features the same ability as the Nokia 6600 Slide in terms of being able to control snooze, alerts, silences and the rejection of incoming calls by simple tapping the body of the phone twice.
Boasting Nokia Maps and Nokia Search, the Nokia 6600 Fold offers a complete entertainment package that includes a 2 mega pixel camera with inbuilt flash and video recording capabilities plus a secondary videocall camera and a music player accompanied by the presence of an integrated stereo FM radio.
The 18MB internal memory can be boosted up to 4GB via the microSD card slot to provide ample storage capacity and in terms of connectivity the Nokia 6600 Fold is pretty well equipped there as well with GSM, GPRS, EDGE and 3G along with bluetooth wireless and USB connectivity.
Available in a choice of either Mysterious Black or Sophisticated Purple, the Nokia 6600 Fold has been designed for a more comfortable fit in your hand and against the face when making calls courtesy of its rounded and more blended contours.
The phones glossy finish and 1.3" external hidden display are the first indication of just how much effort has gone into the phone's design and opens to reveal an internal 2.13" OLED display which is great for viewing images, browse online and checking emails without the need to squint.
The Nokia 6600 Fold is also to be released in further colour schemes including an already announced purple edition, as and when the network exclusive period is finished consumers will then be able to connect the handset to other UK networks as they recieve their stocks.
